More quotes by Swami Vivekananda
Man as Atman is really free as man he is bound, changed by every physical condition.
Swami Vivekananda
Calm and silent and steady work, and no newspaper humbug, no name-making, you must always remember.
Swami Vivekananda
He who always thinks himself as weak will never become strong, but he who knows himself to be a lion, rushes out from the worlds meshes, as a lion from its cage.
Swami Vivekananda
This is the great fact: strength is life.
Swami Vivekananda
The moment you think creed and form and ceremony the be-all and end-all, then you are in bondage. Take part in them to help others, but take care they do not become a bondage.
Swami Vivekananda
The seeker's silence is the loudest form of prayer.
Swami Vivekananda
The Atman alone is eternal. Hospitals will tumble down. Railroad givers will all die. This earth will be blown to pieces, suns wiped out. The Atman endures for ever.
Swami Vivekananda
The happiest moments we ever know are when we entirely forget ourselves.
Swami Vivekananda
Do you think there is any other means of achieving progress except through Rajas?
Swami Vivekananda
The greatest sin is to think that you are weak. No one is greater: realize that you are Brahman. Nothing has power except what you give it.
Swami Vivekananda
Seeing a cat loving her kittens stand and pray. God has become manifest there literally believe this. Repeat I am Thine, I am Thine, for we can see God everywhere. Do not seek for Him, just see Him.
Swami Vivekananda
I do not believe in eternal progress, that we are growing on ever and ever in a straight line. It is too nonsensical to believe. There is no motion in a straight line. A straight line infinitely projected becomes a circle. The force sent out will complete the circle and return to its starting place.
Swami Vivekananda
. . . If you are really my children, you will fear nothing, stop at nothing. You will be like lions. We must rouse India and the whole world. No cowardice.
Swami Vivekananda
I am indebted to my mother for the efflorescence of my knowledge.
Swami Vivekananda
There is no help for you outside of yourself you are the creator of the universe. Like the silkworm you have built a cocoon around yourself.... Burst your own cocoon and come out as the beautiful butterfly, as the free soul. Then alone you will see Truth.
Swami Vivekananda
If there is one word that you find coming out like a bomb from the Upanishads, bursting like a bombshell upon masses of ignorance, it is the word fearlessness.
Swami Vivekananda
Let us not depend upon the world for pleasure.
Swami Vivekananda
Always discriminate-your body, your house, the people and the world are all absolutely unreal like a dream. Always think that the body is only an inert instrument. And the Atman within is your real nature.
Swami Vivekananda
Out of Mahat comes universal egoism.
Swami Vivekananda
The Absolute is the material of both God and man.
